Potter Craft

The instructions are clear and the photography is vibrant and seductive—it makes you want to knit. The book itself is a good size for handling while knitting. I have other stitchonaries, but I will consider adding this one to my personal craft book library.

A complete dictionary of essential stitch patterns

Great stitch dictionary that is well organized, shows each stitch with a photo and a chart, and includes a written description and instructions for each stitch.

Intermediate book with a couple o falmost beginner level patterns. The pictures are enough to make you want to give it a try, though -- lace knitting is beautiful!
